Precision Home Visiting Research and Practice:
Moving from an Innovative Idea to Reality

EnRICH (Engaging Research Innovations and Challenges) Webinar
Maternal and Child Health Bureau
Office of Epidemiology and Research, Division of Research

Please join us on: Friday, July 13, 2018
2:00 pm - 3:00 pm ET


Learning Objectives:
Home visiting programs have consistently shown positive effects, yet little is known about differential effects for subpopulations or how best to personalize services. The HRSA-MCHB Home Visiting Applied Research Collaborative (HARC) will develop methods for precision home visiting to promote innovative research.

At the end of this webinar, attendees will:

  • Understand the concept of precision home visiting (PHV);

  • Differentiate PHV from current research and practice; and

  • Identify how HARC’s new Research & Development Platform will promote PHV.

Presenters
This webinar will feature presenters from the HRSA-MCHB funded Home Visiting Research and Development (HV R&D) Platform. This platform is a transdisciplinary network for scientific collaboration and infrastructure building for innovative home visiting research. HV R&D plans, develops, and sustains a R&D network of early childhood researchers and practitioners to frame, implement, and report on innovative, transdisciplinary research related to precision interventions to improve meaningful outcomes for at-risk families and communities.
